Red Bones in dreams
Structure that holds you up — what is durable when everything else is in motion.
How red changes the reading
The base reading of Bones
Bones in a dream are the dictionary's image of structural durability. A bone broken is the image of a piece of your structural integrity that has been damaged — usually a value, sometimes a real-life injury the dream is processing.
Clean strong bones in the dream are the dictionary's quiet positive: the underlying structure of your life is sound, whatever the surface looks like.
Where you often see it. Clean bones in a museum-light. A broken bone you can feel without pain. Bones held in the hands of an elder figure. The dream uses bones for the structural durability of who you are — what holds when everything else is in motion.
What it is not. Bones are not death-by-default. The dictionary reads them as durable architecture, not as ending.
